EXPLANATION  OF  THE  WORK 

The  present  work  is  intended  to  include  all  the  species  and  sub- 
species of  birds  known  to  occur  in  North  America  (from  the  Arctic 
Islands,  Greenland  and  Alaska,  southward),  Middle  America  (including 
Mexico  and  Central  America),  the  West  Indies  and  Islands  of  the 
Caribbean  Sea,  South  America  and  adjacent  islands  of  the  Atlantic 
and  Pacific  oceans  having  fauna!  relationship. 

In  the  synonymies  of  this  work  the  references  are  largely  confined 
to  the  original  descriptions  (with  type  localities),  the  Catalogue  of 
Birds  of  the  British  Museum,  Ridgway's  Birds  of  North  and  Middle 
America  (Bull.  U.  S.  National  Museum,  No.  50),  monographs  of  fam- 
ilies and  genera,  works  containing  colored  plates  of  the  various  species, 
and  important  papers  in  relation  to  geographical  distribution,  but 
in  many  cases,  where  numerous  nomenclature!  changes  have  been  made 
by  authors,  the  more  important  combinations  and  variations  are  given. 
A  slight  departure  from  the  orthodox  method  is  that  of  always  giving 
the  reference  to  the  accepted  original  description  first,  so  that  the  type 
locality,  which  follows  it  in  parenthesis,  may  be  noted  at  a  glance. 
Diagnostic  descriptions  will  be  given  of  all  species  and  subspecies  not 
included  in  the  standard  works,  Ridgway's  Birds  of  North  and 
Middle  America  and  the  Catalogue  of  Birds  of  the  British  Museum, 
and  for  this  reason  Part  II  of  this  work  is  issued  first,  leaving  Part  I 
(containing  the  "Water  Birds,"  Galliformes,  etc.)  to  be  completed  and 
issued  after  the  parts  containing  those  Orders  in  Prof.  Ridgway's  great 
work  shall  have  been  published,  thereby  reducing  the  size  of  this  work 
by  largely  diminishing  the  number  of  forms  which  would  otherwise 
require  descriptions,  and  enable  the  writer  to  conform  (so  far  as  pos- 
sible) to  the  nomenclature,  conclusions  regarding  specific  and  subspecific 
evaluations,  and  the  vernacular  names  of  North  and  Middle  American 
forms,  adopted  therein,  and  also  to  allow  more  time  to  devote  to  the 
critical  study  of  a  number  of  families  of  the  so-called  "Water  Birds, " 
especially  from  South  America,  many  species  not  previously  repre- 
sented in  the  Museum's  collection  having  been  secured  by  expedi- 
tions during  the  past  few  years. 

In  the  following  pages  the  presence  of  an  *  preceding  the  name  of 
a  species  indicates  that  it  is  represented  in  the  Field  Museum  collection 
by  one  or  more  specimens  and  when  duplicates  are  available  for  ex-

6  EXPLANATION  OF  THE  WORK. 

change  the  fact  is  indicated  by  the  presence  of  a  f  preceding  the  number 
of  specimens. 

Classification:  In  the  present  state  of  our  knowledge  of  birds  of 
the  world  no  system  of  classification  yet  evolved  can  be  considered  as 
more  than  tentative.  That  proposed  by  Gadow  (1892)  has  much  to 
recommend  it,  but  in  a  work  of  this  character,  convenience  of  reference 
is  an  important  factor  to  be  considered  and  I  have,  therefore,  adopted 
the  sequential  arrangement  proposed  by  Sharpe  in  1891  (and  used  in  his 
Hand  List  of  Birds  and  later  practically  by  Brabourne  and  Chubb  in 
their  List  of  Birds  of  South  America)  for  the  Orders  and  Families,  but 
numerous  changes  in  the  nomenclature  and  arrangement  of  Genera  and 
species  were  unavoidable,  being  obviously  desirable  to  conform  with 
their  more  modern  usage. 

I  am  greatly  indebted  to  the  authorities  of  our  leading  Museums  and 
others  for  so  generously  granting  requests  for  the  loan  of  specimens 
(including  many  types)  and  acknowledgments  for  such  courtesies  will 
be  made  later,  but  I  wish  here  to  especially  express  my  thanks  to  Dr. 
Frank  M.  Chapman,  Professor  Robert  Ridgway,  Dr.  C.  W.  Richmond, 
Dr.  Witmer  Stone,  and  Mr.  Outram  Bangs  for  much  valuable  informa- 
tion which  has  greatly  aided  me  in  my  work.

brown  (light  chocolate  instead  of  blackish  brown)  and  quite  uniform  in  shade,  while 
in  P.  perspicillata  the  head  and  upper  parts  of  back  are  much  blacker  than  the 
remaining  portions.  The  abdomen  of  pulsatrix  is  dark  fulvous  brown  (not  ochraceous 
buff  as  in  P.  perspicillata)  and  other  characters. 

b  Pulsatrix  pulsatrix  sharpei  (BERLEPSCH)  :  Somewhat  larger  than  P.  melanota 
(TSCHUDI)  and  differs  from  it  in  having  the  belly  pale  fulvous  brown  with  almost 
obsolete  darker  bands  (instead  of  belly  whitish  with  dark  brown  bands) ;  upper  parts 
more  chocolate  brown  (not  so  sooty  brown) ;  the  pale  patch  on  middle  of  chest  and 
the  superciliary  stripe  is  fulvescent  (instead  of  nearly  white)  and  other  characters.

wing,  1.50  mm.;  tail,  85  mm. 

NOTE. —  The  differences  separating  several  of  the  supposed  subspecies  of  Otus 
choliba,  while  not  very  pronounced,  are  apparently  constant  and  seem  to  represent 
regional  variation;  unfortunately,  sufficiently  large  series  from  the  different  regions 
are  not  available  to  determine  this  question.

Range:    Costa  Rica  and  Panama. 

a  Thermochalcis  cayennensis  tobagensis  (RIDGWAY):  Differs  from  T.  c.  cayen- 
nensis (GMEL.)  in  lighter  coloration  and  more  white  on  the  lateral  rectrices,  and 
wing  and  tail  shorter.  Differs  from  T.  c.  insularis  (RICHMOND)  in  having  inner  webs 
of  all  rectrices  (except  middle  pair)  mostly  white;  tail  shorter.  Very  close  to  T.  c. 
cayennensis  (see  Ridgway,  Bds.  N.  &  M.  Am.,  VI,  1914,  p.  498,  footnote).  It  is 
probable  that  if  the  Tobago  bird  proves  separable,  it  should  stand  as  Thermochalcis  c. 
leopetes  Jardine  and  Selby. 

b  Thermochalcis  cayennensis  monticola  (CHAPMAN):  Differs  from  T.  c.  cayen- 
nensis (GMEL.)  in  having  longer  wings  and  tail  and  bill  larger;  breast  and  flanks  more 
heavily  barred  and  tail  bands  wider.  The  female  is  much  darker  (and  other  char- 
acters). Differs  from  T.  c.  albicauda  (LAWRENCE)  in  males  having  the  black  bar 
crossing  the  white  vane  of  the  tail  feathers  (and  other  characters).  The  female  is 
darker  above  and  much  deeper  buff  below  than  in  albicauda.

*  Nyctipolus  hirundinaceus  hirundinaceus  (Spix) :  Outer  webs  of  at  least  the  two 
outer  primaries  (sometimes  three)  without  white  mark.  Somewhat  resembles 
Chordeiles  acutipennis  (Boon.),  but  aside  from  generic  differences  it  may  be  dis- 
tinguished at  a  glance  by  the  much  shorter  wing  (wing  of  C.  acutipennis  is  more 
than  150  mm.).  Setopagis  parvulus  (GOULD)  with  which  it  has  sometimes  been 
confounded,  may  be  distinguished  at  a  glance  from  any  of  the  forms  of  N.  hirundi- 
naceus by  its  much  darker  plumage  and  the  conspicuous  black  and  white  (sometimes 
black  and  buff)  scapulars  (see  Hellmayr,  i.e.,  Tab.  2).  The  pattern  of  the  white 
markings  on  the  primaries  approaches  nearest  to  that  of  N.  h  crissalis  (CORY)  but  in 
parvulus  these  areas  are  much  larger  and  two  specimens  from  Matto  Grosso  (cf  and  9  ) 
have  two  buff  spots  on  the  inner  web  of  the  outer  primary  instead  of  white  ones. 
In  addition  to  other  characters  males  of  S.  parvulus  have  a  patch  of  white  on  the 
ends  of  four  outer  tail  feathers  instead  of  on  only  the  two  outer  feathers  as  in  N. 
hirundinaceus  (see  Hellmayr,  I.e.,  p.  637,  illustrations). 

b  Nyctipolus  hirundinaceus  crissalis  CORY.  Differs  from  N.  h.  hirundinaceus 
(Spix)  in  slightly  different  coloration  and  in  having  only  the  first  outer  primary 
without  white  mark.  Wing,  118;  tail,  86  mm.

*  Phaethornis  yaruqui  sancti-johannis  HELLMAYR:  According  to  Hellmayr  it 
differs  from  P.  y.  yaruqui  (BoyRC.)  in  having  shorter  bill,  broader  and  darker  post- 
ocular  and  malar  streaks,  median  throat  stripe  wider  and  confluent  with  the  smoke- 
gray  abdomen,  which  is  only  slightly  spotted  with  metallic  green;  whereas  in  P.  y. 
yaruqui  the  under  parts  are  largely  metallic  green  and  the  throat  with  a  median 
stripe  of  sooty  blackish.  Chapman  (I.e.)  states  that  it  differs  chiefly  in  its  grayer 
under  parts. 

b  As  stated  by  Hartert  (Nov.  Zool.,  IV,  1897,  p.  29)  Phaethornis  superciliosus 
(LiNN.)  based  upon  Polytmus  cayanensis  longicaudus  BRISSON  clearly  refers  to  the 
smaller  bird  with  tawny  and  buff  colored  throat  and  breast,  having  a  distinctly 
marked  throat  and  bill  about  l>£  inches  long  (slightly  less  according  to  Brisson). 
Audebert  and  Vieillot,  1802,  figured  a  bird  with  larger  and  longer  bill;  dusky  marked 
throat,  and  more  grayish  under  parts  (which  was  later  described  by  Nordmann  as 
malaris)  evidently  supposing  it  to  superciliosus  LINN,  and  he  was  followed  by  Lesson, 
1831,  and  later  by  Gould.  Gould  evidently  supposing  that  Nordmann  had  merely 
redescribed  superciliosus  and  having  specimens  from  "Guiana,"  which  were  quite 
different,  again  described  the  smaller  and  more  buffy  bird  as  fraterculus. 

0 1  strongly  suspect  that  the  type  of  P.  superciliosus  LINN,  came  from  British 
Guiana. 

d  I  have  examined  specimens  identified  as  guianensis  by  Boucard. 

e  Phaethornis  superciliosus  moorei  (LAWR.) :  Differs  from  P.  s.  superciliosus 
(LiNN.)  from  Guiana,  in  smaller  size;  bill  shorter  and  more  slender;  gular  stripe  more

•  According  to  Chubb  (Bds.  Brit.  Guiana,  I,  1916,  p.  394,  note)  Thaumasius 
SCLATER  is  an  amended  name  for  Thaumantius  BONAP.  and  is  preoccupied  in  Aranae. 
He,  therefore,  proposes  a  new  name,  Barbournea,  for  the  genus  with  T.  taczanowskii 
SCLATER  for  the  type.

•  Patagona  gigas  peruviana  BOUCARD:  Peruvian  specimens  average  decidedly 
larger  than  those  from  Chile.  Attention  has  been  called  to  the  deeper  rufous  colora- 
tion of  the  under  parts,  but  which  does  not  seem  to  be  constant,  the  chief  difference 
being  one  of  size. 

b  Prof.  Ridgway  considers  that  chionogaster  (TSCHUDI),  pallidus  Taczanowski 
and  viridicauda  SCLATER  and  SALVIN,  should  be  excluded  from  this  genus  and 
placed  in  the  Genus  Talaphorus  MULSANT  (cf.  Bull.  U.  S.  Nat.  Mus.  No.  50,

•  I  have  examined  the  type  of  S.  bracei  LAWRENCE.  The  specimen  is  a  mummy  in 
poor  condition  and  apparently  discolored  (probably  by  the  preservative)  and  in  my 
opinion  is  a  discolored  specimen  of  the  bird  which  occurs  commonly  on  Andros  and 
Abaco  Islands.  The  fact  that  no  specimens  of  Riccordia  have  since  been  recorded 
from  New  Providence  would  suggest  that  no  race  exists  there  and  that  the  occurrence 
of  the  type  specimen  of  bracei  on  that  Island  (if  the  locality  given  is  correct)  was 
accidental.

guished by  their  conspicuously  buffy  under  tail  coverts  and  are  probably  sub- 
specifically  distinct.  "In  this  case  it  is  hardly  possible  that  those  from  Peru  and

bill  (bill  from  end  of  feathering  19  mm.) ;  greener  upper  parts  and  less  bright  throat 
spot.  The  type  was  found  in  a  collection  of  birds  supposed  to  have  come  from

»  Heliangelus  rothschildi  BOUCARD:  Upper  parts,  including  tail,  lustrous  purple, 
with  brilliant  spot  on  forehead;  outermost  rectrices  slightly  tipped  with  grayish 
buff;  throat  brilliant  coppery-gold  with  reddish  reflections;  sides  of  throat,  black; 
upper  parts  of  breast,  grayish  buff;  lower  breast  and  abdomen  dark  gray  washed 
with  bronzy  green;  lower  breast  and  abdomen  dark  gray  washed  with  bronzy-green; 
sides  of  breast  and  flanks  purple;  under  tail  coverts  buff y- white  with  greenish  line 
in  center  of  each  feather;  a  white  spot  behind  the  eye;  under  surface  of  tail,  bluish 
purple;  wings  purplish  brown;  bill  black.  Wing,  66;  lat.  rectrices,  43.5;  mid.  rectrices,

b  The  type  of  Aeronympha  prosantis  Oberholser  (No.  11852,  Field  Museum  of 
Natural  History)  is  in  my  opinion  not  fully  adult  and  may  be  a  female.  It  was 
found  among  a  lot  of  birds  from  Colombia  collected  by  C.  Balen  (no  date  or  defi- 
nite locality).  I  have  seen  no  females  or  immature  males  of  H.  rothschildi  for 
comparison  and  it  may  represent  a  distinct  form  of  Heliangelus.  Messrs.  Simon  and 
Hellmayr  (I.e.)  believe  it  to  be  an  immature  H.  rothschildi. 

0  Heliangelus  claudia  HARTERT:  Back  slightly  glossed  with  purple;  forehead  with 
purplish  black  spot;  throat  bluish  hyacinth  (somewhat  like  H.  violicollis,  but  not  so 
deep  and  less  violet);  pectoral  band  whitish;  under  tail  coverts  white;  abdomen 
grayish  black.  Wing,  65;  tail,  42;  bill,  16  mm.

a  Lophornis  verreauxi  klagesi  BERL.  and  HARTERT:  Similar  to  L.  v.  verreauxi 
from  the  Upper  Amazons,  but  differs  in  having  the  general  color  of  body  darker 
green,  rectrices  and  upper  tail  coverts  dark  bronzy  olive  (not  dark  copper  bronze 
color) ;  elongated  feathers  on  sides  of  throat  darker  and  white  tips  smaller. 

b  Lophornis  insignibarbis  SIMON:  Approaches  L.  v.  verreauxi,  but  elongated 
feathers  of  the  neck  replaced  by  a  metallic  green  throat;  bill  more  slender. 

0  Boucard  (I.e.)  believes  this  to  represent  a  phase  of  plumage  of  an  immature 
L.  verreauxi.

*  Popelairia  langsdorffi  melanosteron  (GOULD)  :  Similar  to  P.  /.  langsdorffi,  but 
differs  in  having  the  crown  grass  green  and  the  under  parts  darker  and  more  golden 
on  lower  breast. 

b  Popelairia  conversii  aequatorialis  BERLEPSCH  and  TACZANOWSKI:  Authorities 
differ  as  to  the  standing  of  this  subspecies.  It  is  recognized  by  Hartert  (I.e.)  and 
Ridgway  (I.e.),  and  Brabourne  and  Chubb,  but  questioned  by  Salvin,  Boucard  (I.e.) 
and  Berlepsch.  It  is  supposed  to  differ  in  its  more  bluish  pectoral  spot;  longer  bill 
and  upper  tail  coverts  more  bronzy  and  less  green.  Chapman  considers  birds  from 
western  Colombia  to  be  typical  P.  conversii  conversii.  I  therefore  restrict  the  range 
of  P.  c.  aequatorialis  to  Ecuador,  although  this  conflicts  with  Ridgway's  statement 
that  he  is  unable  to  distinguish  Costa  Rican  and  Panaman  specimens  from  those 
from  Ecuador  (I.e.,  footnote,  p.  680).
